Increases Jobs per User in integrated hosting

Hi all, apparently we have a limit of 100 concurrent Jobs per User on slurm. This seems reasonable for the (shared) main cluster as we wouldn't schedule more than that anyway as other users want to use the system as well. The situation is somewhat different for the integrated hosting part however (though this comes with a few questions from my side): My understanding is that we have exclusive access to our hardware. (Is this the case? Or do we only have "prioritized" access and the hardware is used by others as well if idle?) Anyway we would expect that a user (from our ih project) can use all our hardware provided that no other user (from our ih project) is using it as well. If we do the math however we provide more than 300 cores, but only 100 jobs are scheduled. At the same time we will probably have only one or two user using our partition quite frequently, essentially wasting time... Long story short: Could we increase this limit (at least for ih partitions)? Best, Gereon -- Gereon Kremer Lehr- und Forschungsgebiet Theorie Hybrider Systeme RWTH Aachen Tel: +49 241 80 21243
